The Memphis Grizzlies may be looking to trade Tyus Jones, their reliable backup point guard, amid rumors of a potential shakeup after an embarrassing postseason loss. However, with Ja Morant set to miss the first 25 games of the season, it would only make sense for the Grizzlies to move on from Jones if they can get another point guard.
